Meet Set-up

Remplir les infos soulignées en jaune. 

Pour les dates Start et End Dates, entrer le premier et derniers jours de la compétition ou la même date si c'est seulement une journée. Age-Up Date devrait toujours être la même que start date à moins que la trousse d'info indique que l'âge est calculé sur une autre date. Entry Open et deadline dates devrait correspondre aux même dates qui seront utilisé dans le système RTR. Même si la date est ignoré par le RTR, ils vont quand même paraitre lorsque les équipes importe le fichier d'épreuve pour la compétition.

Default touch pads at both ends devrait être activé seulement pour une piscine LC bassin-long (tel que Saint Jean), autrement il ne devrait pas être actif.

Course: choisir SC (bassin cour 25m) ou LC (bassin long 50 m)

DQ Codes: Choisir UK-ASA DQ Codes Mar 2023. Si vous utilisez la version 7 de meet manager, choisir UK-ASA DQ Codes Oct 2017. Télécharger les codes de DQ (faire un unzip dans le dossier d'installation Hytek - normallement C:\Hy-Sport\SwMM7 ou C:\Hy-Sport\SwMM8)

Seeding Preferences

Course order: Choisir SLY (Short/Long/Yard) pour bassin court (25m) ou LSY (Long/Short/Yard) pour bassin long (50m). Ceci détermine la priorité des bassins pour le temps.

Prelim/Final events - seed non-conforming times last: Si cette option est activée, elle va classer les bassins selon l'ordre spécifié sous le champ course. Par example, si le bassin/course est LSY, tout les entrés LC seront classés en premier suivie de SC, Yards et finalement NT qui sera en dernier.

Timed final events - seed non-conforming times last: similaire à l'option ci-dessus excepté que ça s'applique seulement aux épreuves finales par le temps (timed final).

Report Preferences

Note: These settings need to be specified again if meet file is transferred on another computer.

Add the following options highlighted in yellow:

• Show athlete status with name (will insert % for para, * for foreigner and x for exhibition swimmers)
• Will display actual entry time instead of converted
• Show 2nd club will be used to add the exception codes of Para swimmers
• Relays as 4x100 and 4x200 style make it easier to understand

Optional in purple: suppress the "J" for JD on results is recommended for meets with superfinals to avoid seeing the "J" in front off all Superfinal results.

F​​​​​​​

Scoring/Awards

If a meet (like MLTC) has a limit on the number of team that can score for relay per event enter this limit in the field highlighted in yellow (for MLTC it is usually 1), otherwise leave it blank.

Entries / Entry Limits 

Entries must have been performed on or after: Use the earliest result date that is eligible for entries as per meet package or leave blank if there is no period limit.

Maximum entries per athlete including relays: add the sum of the two values below.

Maximum individual entries: maximum individual entries for entire meet as specified in the meet package.

Maximum relay entries per athlete: if multiple event per age group, this value should be doubled the number of relays (a swimmer could swim in both her age group and higher age group if they have different event numbers).

​​​​​​​

​​​​​​​

Para Meet

Paralympic Point System: Select Canada Paralympic Points (LC and SC Meters only)

Enable the Rank Results for Multi-Class Athletes [...]

Standard Scoring Set-up

Only set if meet package indicates that events will be scored.

For individual pts, set to value of age group finals. If meet has Superfinals, do not use the superfinal score here, they will need to be JD (Judge decision) after each event.

For relay points, set to values as specified in meet package for relays.

All other positions should be set to 0 (zero).

​​​​​​​

​​​​​​​

Entry Fee Surcharge

Athlete surcharge: enter the meet fee per athlete

Event number:Should be odd for girls and even for boys, except when events are mixed. 

• 1-99 are normally individual events
• 101-199 are relay events
• 301-399 are para events

Individual/Relay: specify if event is individual or a relay.

Alt Gender, leave it enabled if entering events for boys and girls which will alternate the gender after adding an event with same other settings.

Age group: specifies a specific age group for an entire event number. Could be useful if a 12&under event is timed final which would need to be added under custom

Otherwise event age groups are specified under the multi-age groups:

Score Event: Indicates if event will be scored (detail should be in meet package)

Event Type: use standard for most event or multi-class for para events (for para, also indicate Para under stroke note).

Pads at both ends: Should normally only be enabled for LC events with electronics. Otherwise, it should be disabled.

Distance: Specify the distance in meter of the event. For relays, enter the total distance (ex: 4 x 50 m relays: use 200)

Stroke: Specify the stroke of the event

Rounds: Specify if event is timed final (1 round) or prelims/finals (2 rounds)

Heat order: specifies if heat will be seeded from slowest to fastest (most events) or fastest to slowest (sometimes 400m events and up). This should be specified under meet package.

Superfinals: Will seed top lane results regardless of age into a superfinal, then the rest will be seeded into each age group final.

Multi-age best of the rest (only available since version 8): will seed top lane results for each age group, then the best of the rest regardless of age will be seeded in a B final. 

Event - Session - Edit Session

Session number: start with 1 and increase by 1 for each additional session

Session title: Indicate a title of session 

Day: indicate 1 if first day of meet, 2 second day, etc

Start time: Session start time

Interval: recommended range 30 to 50 secs (dive over start for champs need less time, clearing pool and premier meet need more time)

Extra Backstroke: recommended range 45 to 60 secs (need more time with ledges)

Course: should match the course of meet setup

Max entries should not be used here (see previous entries setup), unless we also want to put a limit per session.

​​​​​​​

​​​​​​​

Once sessions are created, double click on the event to add it on the session. If a same timed-final event (like 1500 free) is added again in a final session, the system will ask if you want to split and how many heats (normally 1 fastest heat of each gender is swim during final).

If meet package specifies that an event is alternating gender, specify the event number to alternate with under alt column, it will default to 1 heat of alternation (this can be common with 400m distances and higher).

Event - Standards - Custom Qual Times

Custom Qual Times: Option should be enabled, otherwise exporting the event file will not allow to select the LSY or SLY course order for entries which imports either LC or SC times without conversion in the specified order.

This option should be in the lower right side of the Event -> Time Standards window.

​​​​​​​

​​​​​​​

Export Events to TM

When exporting events to TM (Under file-export), the first option should be enabled (without being greyed out). Otherwise, there is a possibility that Custom Qual Times was not enabled.

This is to enable entry times in both LC and SC without conversion. The course order specifies the priority. LSY specifies the order LC-SC-Yard, while SLY would be in the order SC-LC-Yard. It will still seed them all together, unless the non-conforming options were enabled under seeding preferences above.

Other course terms (appears as 6th comma seperated value on first line of ev3 file):

• L - all times will be converted to LC times
• LO - Long course time Only (no conversion)
• S - all times will be converted to SC times
• SO - Short course time Only (no conversion)
